Acosta, Leonel
January 02, 2000,
Albuquerque Journal, Page: 7, Taos -- A 16-year-old
Ranchos de Taos boy
was killed early Saturday morning in a one-car accident
when he apparently lost control of his vehicle and crashed into a
tree on Ranchitos Road. Taos Police Officer Lee Totman said the victim, Leonel
Acosta, was the brother of 21-year-old Luis Acosta, who is
awaiting trial on a
charge of murder in the death of 18-year-old Erik Sanchez
of Espanola. Sanchez
was hurled to his death off the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge on
Nov. 23, 1998. Another
man, David Sandoval, pleaded guilty in the killing.
Totman, who investigated the Saturday accident, said the victim was not
wearing a seat belt and was apparently flung into the right rear seat of his car
when it bounced off of the tree, spun around and smashed into a second tree. The
accident occurred sometime between 3 and 3:30 a.m., police said. A member of the Taos
Volunteer Fire Department happened on the scene and called police. The body has been
turned over to the Office of the Medical Investigator in Albuquerque for autopsy and to
determine if alcohol was a factor in the accident, police
said. Totman said it
appeared that the teen had been driving too fast and
failed to negotiate a
turn in the road. The vehicle was traveling east on
Ranchitos Road at the time of the crash.

Anton Aigner born in Ried im Innkreiss, Austia on April
18, 1935 died in his
home shortly after Christmas 2006. Father to Kresanna, 35,
and Marcus, 33, residing
in Scotland, grandpapa to Jacob and Taylor and brother to
Josef Aigner. After completing
a course in Hotel Management, Walter moved to Bermuda when
he was 21, where he
worked as a waiter and also entertained guest playing the
piano. Following his nose
for a good ski slope he moved to Stowe, Vermont, there he
turned his hand to construction.
In 1970 he met Maggie and married and had Kesanna and
Marcus. Walter left
the construction business due to a back injury. After his
divorce from Maggie, and as full time provider of the children he turned
his eye to antique dealing and a variety of creative business ventures. Kresanna
and Marcus moved to Scotland in their teens to spend time with their mother, this
was an opportunity for Walter to move on and with a love for the arts and skiing settle
in Taos, NM with his beloved dogs. He then had time to further explore his creative
talents. His neighbors nicknamed him "10X12" or fondly "Pitbull" because of the unusual
house he built and his determined personality. Walter Aigner an incredibly independent
mans who never gave up on his quest for adventure, new discoveries and the desire to
develop and turn his hand to many skills and crafts. We know he found contentment in Taos
and was very much at home here. He has left behind a family that will always have
constant love, admiration and respect for all that he was
and achieved in his
life. After a lifetime of travels we hope he finds peace
in his final place of rest.
The family would also like to thank friends and neighbors
for the support and love they have shown him. Upon Walter's request
there will be no formal memorial service and his body was cremated. However, his
children would like to extend an invitation to friends and neighbors to join us for an
informal ski, meet at the St. Bernard's by the fire place
on Saturday, January
13, 2007 at noon and followed by an evening drink at the

Wendell Anderson, 85,
died August 15, in Albuquerque. Born in St. Maries, ID, to
Swedish immigrants, he
played football for Lakeview, OR's high school, began
writing and publishing
poetry then, and continued through life, with prose, too.
He lived awhile in the Henry
Miller group at Big Sur, CA. Also an artist, he believed
he was a descendent of philosopher,
Swedenborg. His poems are about nature, family, the
West...and Universe. Some
will be in Taos Historical Society's new book. He carried
mail in OR, worked for the Forest Service and Social Service in NM,
helped clear Taos' first ski run, drove the Harwood Bookmobile to outlying
schools, and taught creative writing in New Hampshire. He was known for his drive,
stick-to-itness and fierce loyalty to them he cared about,
focusing on immediacies
and profundities more than "betweens"--happiest when on or
facing a mountain. He was
an original "beyond words"...unless description of the
outfit he chose for
his 911 call and 6 blks. ambulance ride, at dawn, to the
hospital, widebrim straw, Hawaiian shirt, chinos, mountain shoes and
buffalo-nichol bolo tie. No wonder so many people loved him! Bereaved include

years of Albuquerque; his son, Martin Belloc of Mill Valley, CA; niece, Lisa Shearer;

and her husband Dave, brother Jimmy Armijo and his wife
Virginia, brother Clyde
Armijo, brother Ernest Armijo and his wife Nora of
Haywood, CA, and brother David Armijo and his wife Licia of
Alamogordo, NM. Sorrow in Tony's death can be diminished by the joy of his
remarkable life; born in Corrales, NM in 1925, he grew up
among 11 siblings. As a
young child he planted and harvested fruits and
vegetables, (often
from sunrise to sunset), beginning a work ethic that never
left him. In his teens, he worked at the Moore Drydock
Shipbuilding Co. in Oakland, CA as a sheet metal worker, a job that led him to serve with the
Merchant Marines in the South Pacific during the first part of WWII. After completing his
tour with the Merchant Marines, he returned to the US where he married his lovely wife
Lilly, but was subsequently drafted by the US Army where he served out the remaining
part of the war in Germany. Returning to New Mexico he worked first as a chauffer, then
as roofer, and later as a sheet metal worker for Van Damme Sheet Metal Works on Mountain
Rd. From 1952 to 1969 he expanded his metalworking skills with Sandia
National Laboratories. In 1969 Tony started his own sheet
metal company, A G
Heating. His knowledge was passed to a multitude of
individuals that
continue to support their families with the trades to this
day. In 1996 he co founded Four Winds Mechanical with his sons. In
addition to passing along skills in the trades, he also taught countless people how to
hunt, fish, camp and survive in the wilderness and the rest of the world. Thank you, Daddy
Tony, for all the love, life, and blessings. A viewing will be held on Friday, October
23rd, 2009 at Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church located at 4020 Lomas Blvd at 6:00 pm, with
a rosary immediately following at 7:00 pm. The funeral mass will take place at Our
Lady of Fatima at 10:00 am on Saturday, October 24th, 2009 and interment will take
place at Mt. Calvary Cemetery, where Tony will be laid to rest beside his bride.
